A Few Words on Postage Rate Changes - As you are most likely aware the US Postal Service has raised it's rates effective 5/14/07. As a result we've had to increase our rates accordingly, as a new class of mail has been introduced for Envelopes with Stiffeners. We mail all of our items enclosed in plastic with two cardboard stiffeners to protect the ephemera, so what previously was first class mail with a base fee of 39 cents for the first ounce is now a 97 cent for the first ounce. We are always willing to combine mailing costs and/or provide media rate when available.
Ask us about the Ephemera Society of America - Thanks.
